With the release of their debut EP 'Conditions', the band interweave their industrial noise/techno hybrid soundscape and monochromatic gothic visuals. On their second, ‘Conditions II’, they explored themes of nostalgia, love, pressure and loss on a four-track EP that combines techno with industrial post-punk and indie-rock. Their upcoming third EP, aptly named “Conditions III”, ends the trilogy that launched their career, fusing elements of heavy guitar music, electronica and breakbeat into a euphoric and frightening finished project. Recorded against the backdrop of bleak landscapes and Nordic vistas in remote northern Iceland, Chalk have shown another evolution in their already confrontational sound. Winners of the ‘Best Live Act’ at the NI Music Prize in late 2023, Chalk have proved worthy of this title with sold-out headlines in Ireland, the UK, Netherlands and France, festival appearances stretching from the west coast of Ireland to Vienna and Sicily (as the second most booked band of ESNS 2024) and support slots for IDLES, SPRINTS and PVA under their belt.
